Michael Allen Bowen

My heart is broken in a way no one can imagine. I lost the person who knew me better than anyone, and I knew him better than anyone; we knew each others' likes, dislikes,hopes, dream, fears, wishes, wants, needs. I am going about doing things as he wanted them done, for I love him and respect him, even now. We shared a bond most people only dream about and never get. I had this man in my life for over 27 years; and as sad as it is that he is gone, and much as it hurts that he's not looking...

There really aren't any words to describe the void this man will leave in so many lives, those who truly cared about him. My heart goes out to his widow who always made him her priority and proved so by granting him his final wish. We love you both.

Dear Lisa, I was deeply saddened to hear about Mike passing. It brought back many memories of us toiling away on second shift and you telling me all kinds of funny stories about him... (his "dependable" truck and the Harley bubble to name a few..lol) If there is anyhting you need, please dont hesitate, you are in my prayers..

Dear Lisa,

I am so very, very shocked and saddended to learn of your beloved Mike's passing. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers.
With deepest sympathy.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I was shocked to hear of his passing. May God bless you.
From the wife of Michael Allen Bowen, Jr.

Sorry to hear about your loss, Mike was a great guy and will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I'll see you on the other side bro, check out the roads, I'll be expecting a tour...

I always referred to him as "The Big Guy" and he was. He had the Biggest Heart of anyone I know. He was my Best friend and my accomplice... He always told me, "A good friend will Bail you out of Jail, Your Best friend will be sitting beside you saying, Man, wasn't that fun"... I will miss him...

I am so sorry for your lose. I worked closely with Mike many years ago at the orion plant and had just talked to him just before he retired. I so wish that he could have enjoyed his retirement mor thou. I remember him to be a very happy guy who would take the time to talk to you and try to be helpful.
My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
